"to the praise of His glorious grace, which He has freely given us in the Beloved One."
(Ephesians 1:6)

"In the Beloved" accepted am I,
Risen, ascended, and seated on high;
Saved from all sin thro' His infinite grace,
With the redeemed ones accorded a place.
"In the Beloved" God's marvelous grace
Calls me to dwell in this wonderful place;
God sees my Savior, and then He sees me,
"In the Beloved" accepted and free.
"In the Beloved"-how safe my retreat,
In the Beloved accounted complete;
"Who can condemn me?" In Him I am free,
Savior and Keeper forever is He.
"In the Beloved" I went to the tree,
There, in His Person, by faith I may see
Infinite wrath rolling over His head,
Infinite grace, for He died in my stead.
"In the Beloved" God's marvelous grace
Calls me to dwell in this wonderful place;
God sees my Savior, and then He sees me,
"In the Beloved" accepted and free.
"Accepted In The Beloved"
